The email, intended as a highlights recap of 2025, felt very selfish and failed to engage me or other subscribers who may not have used the app recently. I emphasize the importance of targeting the right audience and crafting messages that address their needs, rather than focusing solely on the brand&apos;s achievements. I scored this email a 4 out of 10 due to its lack of relevance and clarity. I encourage viewers to reflect on their own email strategies and consider how they can better connect with their audience.</description></oembed>
